Wikipedia gives its edges as Lake Magdalene on the north, Tampa on the east, Egypt Lake on the south and Carrollwood Village on the west. The census counts Carrollwood and Carrollwood Village together as one place.
Unincorporated means outside any city's limits, so Hillsborough County Code Enforcement handles code cases in Carrollwood. Zoning, property maintenance and water conservation are among the codes the county lists. A public search on the county website finds a case by street address, parcel number or name.

Lakes, flood zones and the Florida flood form
Wikipedia names Lake Carroll, where the early 1960s development took place, and Lake Magdalene on the northern edge. Hillsborough County explains that an evacuation zone and a flood zone are different things. An evacuation zone is an area officials may order evacuated during a hurricane. A flood zone shows the flood risk of a property at any time of year, and it affects insurance and building rules.
Florida Statutes section 689.302 requires the seller of a home to give the buyer a flood disclosure form at or before the time the contract is signed. It asks whether flooding damaged the home, whether you filed a flood insurance claim and whether you received flood aid such as FEMA help. Answer honestly. You can still sell to BIMINIO after a yes, and we price the house with the damage in mind.

Selling in Carrollwood: questions
Do you buy houses in Carrollwood?
Yes. Carrollwood is one of the ten Tampa areas on the BIMINIO home page, and we buy its houses in any condition, plus duplexes to fourplexes and building lots in Hillsborough County. Send the street address through the form. A person calls you back within the hour with the next step.
Is Carrollwood inside the City of Tampa?
No. Wikipedia describes Carrollwood as an unincorporated community in Hillsborough County, with Tampa on its eastern edge. Hillsborough County offices handle its code cases and permits. Your property record at the Hillsborough County Property Appraiser shows whether your own address is inside or outside the city, which matters if your street lies along the eastern edge.
Which office handles code violations in Carrollwood?
Hillsborough County Code Enforcement handles code violations in Carrollwood. Among the codes the county lists are zoning, property maintenance and water conservation. A public search on the county website finds cases by street address, parcel number or name, and shows each case's status and dates. BIMINIO buys Carrollwood houses that have open cases.
When was Carrollwood built?
Wikipedia says Carrollwood was founded in 1959 and built out in the 1960s. More than 900 homes went up near Lake Carroll from 1959 through 1970, Carrollwood Elementary opened in 1963 and the Carrollwood Country Club followed in 1972. A house finished in 1970 is now 56 years old.
Can I sell a 1960s Carrollwood house without repairing it?
Yes. BIMINIO buys Carrollwood houses as they are, including houses built in the 1960s. You do not repair, clean or stage anything. The repair budget behind your offer comes from a scope of the work, led by our founder, a trained architect. The comparable sales we used come with the written offer.
Do I fill in the Florida flood form if my Carrollwood house never flooded?
Yes. Florida Statutes section 689.302 asks the seller of a home to give the buyer the flood disclosure form at or before the contract is signed, even when the house never flooded. Selling as is does not change the requirement. BIMINIO gives no legal advice, so ask a lawyer if you have questions.
What is the difference between an evacuation zone and a flood zone?
Hillsborough County says they measure different conditions. Evacuation zones, lettered A to E, show where officials may order evacuation during a hurricane. Flood zones show a property's flood risk at any time of year and affect insurance and building requirements. Use the county's lookup tools to check your Carrollwood address against both.
How is a Carrollwood house priced in a cash offer?
We look at recent sales close to the house, starting within half a mile, and subtract the cost of the work it needs. That cost comes from a scope of the work, and the comparable sales we used are attached to the written offer. A Carrollwood cash offer sits below full market value.
